................. Didn't one state even succeed in changing their election law so that the winner of the nationwide popular vote gets the state's electoral college votes even though that person might have lost the state's popular vote?

If memory serves, none of those states new laws on that rule change take effect unless a majority of states follow as well. Other wise they use the old way. It was more to make the libs happy after Al Gore lost to President Bush.

It can get much more complicated and in the end, the sum total is not befitting the constitution.
